Aearwen's Little Bits - Determination
Jan. 10th, 2009 11:34 amFor what it's worth, I am approximatly 3/4s of the way through a challenge at the Garden of Ithilien Online Writer's Workshop to produce a minimum of 100 original words per day for 100 consecutive days. This means that, while I've not posted them as yet, I have a total of over 60 of these drabbles, with a few double-drabbles thrown in for good measure.
It has been a real challenge to me, not only to produce something every single consecutive day for over three months now, but to come up with something completely different each time. I can only hope you folks are enjoying reading these little bits as much as I have writing them.
"This may not work."
"I know." The hills and beach slowly shrank toward the horizon. "This is right - I feel it."
"You did not have to come with me." Legolas insisted.
"Yes I did." Gimli raised his eyes to his friend. "It's my job to watch your back."
"My back will not need watching in Aman," Legolas began.
"Says who?"
"Gimli, In the Undying Lands, if there is a back to defend, it will be yours!" Legolas sighed in defeat. "If it does not work..."
"We'll think of something, Elf."
From your lips to the Valar's ears, mellon nîn.
